Adult boars average 120–180 cm in length and have a shoulder height of 90 cm. As a whole, their average
weight is 50–90 kg kilograms (110–200 pounds), though boars show a great deal of weight variation within
their geographical ranges. In central Italy their weight usually ranges from 80 to 100 kg; boars
shot in Tuscany have been recorded to weigh 150 kg (331 lb). A French specimen shot in Negremont
forest in Ardenne in 1999 weighed 227 kg (550 lb). Carpathian boars have been recorded to reach
weights of 200 kg (441 lb), while Romanian and Russian boars can reach weights of 300 kg (661 lb).
Generally speaking, native Eurasian boars follow Bergmann's rule, with smaller boars nearer the
tropics and larger, smaller-eared boars in the North of their range.
